 Just had a
 look at Cliff's  PDF on Syntactic foam.   Wow very
 nice!  and there is a cost breakdown I see.  It is much
 cheaper than buying but still twice the cost of trawl
 floats.  Hank

  Alan,Yes I
 could save a few bucks and look good at the same time :-)
  I doubt I could make foam for less than trawl floats but
 maybe Cliff has a cost per lb buoyancy.   There is
 syntactic foam available that you mix together into your own
 mould also.  I am also still woking on the titanium
 spheres.   I have time to sort it out.Hank

  Hank,you could
 go on a diet :)There is
 this pdf on making syntactic foam by Cliffhttp://www.psubs.org/design/PDF/SyntacticFoam.pdf
 I went to
 Alvins 50th Birthday party in New Orleans.They said
 the syntactic foam on it cost $3million. That
 included all the pressure testingof the
 individual segments.Alan

 Yikes!
 syntactic foam is costly.  Syntactic foam for 1,000M is 8
 dollars per pound buoyancy- trawl floats are 3 dollars per
 lb buoyancy.    I need almost 1,000 lbs
 buoyancy.Hank
